Jason is 5

The day has finally come for Jason! He has been asking and waiting for this day since June 20th, Alyssa's birthday. He knew he was next in line for our family! He had a great day!
The presents happened first thing before the kids went to school or we ate breakfast! Poor Jenna. Our attempt at 5 happy kids. 4 will have to work!

The Bumblebee Transformer costume was from my parents and he got spending money from David's parents. He loved both!!
The Sunday before Jason's birthday Cameron typed up this letter to Jason on the computer. All his idea and everything. I was in the kitchen cleaning and he asked me how to spell a few words. I just helped him print off the letter. What a good brother!

Dear Jason

Thanks for being a good brother I'm trying to be a good brother too, you are awesome!!!!!!!! You are very special like your sisters, mom, dad, cousins, grandpa and grandma and me. I'm so proud of you! You are a special boy.

From Cameron.
This is the toy Cameron picked out for Jason. He was right. Jason LOVES it!

Cameron had his Raingutter Regata for Cub Scouts that night. So we headed over to the neighborhood park and watched. It was fun for Cameron! They also got their awards from day camp that they went to in July.


Jason's Primary teachers came over with a bag of gummy bears and a balloon. Jason loves his teachers!

And Jason is enjoying his bike and is safe now with a new helmet. Happy Birthday Jason!! We love you so much! You are our SPECIAL BOY!!!

Our New Family Pictures

I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to change up, little specks to take off, small touch ups before th

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah,

TRIALS

We have been preparing for over 4 years for this trial. But nothing, no matter how much you knew it could and most likely would happen, can prepare you when your son's doctor tells you now is the time. "Your son needs open heart surgery." August 24th, 2005, Jason was born in Las Vegas, NV. He was perfect and healthy looking in every way. At his 2 week check up the doctor heard a heart murmur and recommended I take him to the cardiologist. I mentioned that I was flying out to WA in a few days and so I'd probably go when I got back, 3 weeks later. The cardiologist doctor called me the next day after visiting with the pediatrician, asking me to go in to have Jason checked out. It was late and he was willing to stay after hours for us to get there. After an ultra sound of his heart (echo) the cardiologist diagnosed Jason with a very small hole in his heart. Nothing that needed to be fixed right away, unless it started causing problems. So Jason started going every 3 month
